It showcases the pretty Violet Dreams DSP seen here. There are 3 pieces from the DSP on this card: the violets die-cut, the striped frame and the green DSP strip. This DSP has 2 sheets of die-cut ephemera included in the package. I love that; it opens up so many options when creating.
Look closely at the coordinating colors on this card. Stampin’ Up! makes it so easy to create with perfectly matching colors. It’s my very favorite thing about SU. I used the violets as the starting point and simply repeated each color once or twice on my project for a wonderfully cohesive look.
Tip: If you struggle with color coordination pick two colors and repeat them at least once if not twice on your project. This works!

Curvy Christmas; only available a few more weeks!
Look at this WOW card featuring the Curvy Christmas & Quite Curvy dies! Marilyn made it for our swap last month; she really outdid herself with this one.
Curvy Dies – green leaves and Gold foil & White dotted curvy edge
Detailed Band dies – gold leaves
Stitched Nested Labels
3/8" Metallic Gold ribbon – dies Cherry Cobbler
Shaded Spruce, Cherry Cobbler & White CS
Remember that the Curvy Christmas set and Classic Christmas 6" paper are retiring soon. They are available while supplies last through January 4th only. The Quite Curvy bundle will be coming back in the 2021 Spring catalog however. See it all here.
I used the Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP here along with Very Vanilla, Navy, Brass foil and Peacock CS. This pretty paper is on sale at 50% off! See it here.
This is one of the easiest layouts you can make that still has some layers to it. I like the card below best since you can stamp directly on the single layer and do not need a second greeting piece to stamp on like the cards on the left & right above. Measurements below:
Main card – 8 ½” X 5 ½” or 4 ¼” X 11”, DSP – 3” square
CS – 4 ¼” X 3 ¼”, Vanilla greeting layer is 7/8" X 3", Foil strip – ½” X 4”
Next I have a super cute candy box treat made by my friend Marilyn. She used the Celebration Label dies; they're 50% off now while supplies last! See them here.
Red CS 6 1/2" X 7" score at 3/8", 3/4", 3 1/2" and 3 7/8".
Black glitter belt 1" X 7"
This candy bar is in a thin card board box so I had to score it. Usually I just wrap the card stock around the candy bar and glue the edge overlapping each other. That one is a lot quicker.
It's a piece of Snowflake Splendor DSP and White CS both measuring 4 1/2" X 2" and tied together at the top. I used the Delightful Tag Topper & 2" circle punches here. The stitched nose is made with the Triangle dies. I drew Black 'stones' with a marker for his smile.
